[quote=Anonymous]There is no right solution about how far away to be from the parents either. As the one who lives closest I was getting eaten alive helping one with parent with the other and being the punching bag. I worked with a therapist and set boundaries. The other sibling who did little has pretty much muddied my name with extended family for saying "no" to things and setting other limits. It stresses the family you create to the max and can eat away at your health. I hear you about the SN part too. I'm in the club. I had to make it so that the family i created was the priority. Thew irony is I did the most and am the scapegoat. Thanks to boundaries at least I am at a healthy place accepting this unfair label rather than burned out, ill and full of rage.[/quote]
